proper western tennis grip
when should I start pronating in my tennis serve?
I finally have developed proper serve technique, but at the moment I am being forced to use a semi-western forehand grip because I am unable to find the right moment to pronate with a Continental can anyone help me out?
I used to be a tennis instructor for a legit place. Pronating will occur naturally if you stay loose. Don't ever, ever pronate on purpose. Pronating will help the ball go in the box better. If you ever wonder why the balls might be flying long, it could be because you are not pronating caused by your wrist not being loose enough. I totally hate to break this to you but if you want a really good serve, use a continental grip. Ever single pro uses a continental grip on the serve. It took me a while, but my serve it way better because of it. Honest first thing I'd worry about isn't pronating, it's using the grip.

Tennis Experiment 1: Western Grip
Tips for Successful Tennis
Make every stroke a power stroke. Expert tips and rigorous training and repetition is all that needs for a perfect tennis game. Practice, practice and more practice-Tennis is only about that one element after you know what you are supposed to do. So here is what you should keep in mind while playing tennis.
While playing tennis you will come to realize one of the most important things that in tennis there is no “one exact” way to play tennis, there are always options. This is what makes it even more interesting. There are no hell bent rules one has to adhere to. There are so many options and you are at your free will to pick the best for you.
Coming down to the actual tennis game, we can start off with the grip. They have an immense impact on the types of strokes you develop. Which grip could be the best for you? Read down and you shall know about it. It could be a forehand grip which would seem like a simple handshake with the racket. For this you have to technically turn your hand approximately a quarter circle counter-clockwise if you are right handed and the exact reverse if you are left handed. This grip is highly used to do the service.
Most popular among the strokes is the semi-western stroke where you hold the grip about a quarter turn further clockwise from the grip discussed above. This is the perfect grip for producing tremendous power and topspin.
Another way of holding the racket would be gripping it with knuckles pointing towards the ground. This is a good practice while playing on the clay courts. It is not that popular of a gripping practice because it inflicts serious restrictions on certain shots like the short and low balls. They become extremely difficult to corner.
Effortless efficiency could be achieved with proper execution of these tips.
There are just so many options in tennis that a single mutual consent on the grip, footwork, handwork is difficult to reach between the coach and the players. It is mostly the natural instinct of the player. What a coach should do is, correct the flaws, let the player play his game but make sure that the basics are not manipulated.
Just as there are numerous ways to form a proper grip on your tennis racket there are various ways for the forehand practices, back hand shots, backhand slicing, the forehand volley, the lobs and various different shots. Talking about forehand and backhand shots, there are more options in backhand than in the forehand shots. There could be single handed backhands or double handed backhands.
But tennis at the end of the day is not all about the forehand and the backhand shots. It is beyond these grips, strokes, volleys and the perfect serves. Mental toughness is the key in tennis. Along with mental toughness there is requirement for strategic planning. Staying fit and healthy is not a luxury you can avail in tennis, it is a requirement for staying put in the game. Getting all these correct along with the idyllic technical tennis stuff, there is no stopping you to become the next Pete Sampras or Roger Federer.
